TENNIS LOOKS FOR QUICK APPEAL

Tagged in &

Superset Tennis Ltd and Quintus, the sports and entertainment company, have forged a partnership to deliver more events in the quickfire version of the game.

Superset tennis will pit the world’s best players against each other in a head-to-head winner-takes-all event.

It is played at one venue, on one court, with the one-set knock out format producing a winner on the same day.

Peter Worth, Quintus CEO said, “The new series of events are set to become the ‘Twenty20’ of tennis in a bid to not only bring something fresh to the tennis community but also appeal to a new audience. ”

Edward Freedman, CEO of Superset Tennis, said: “The global tennis community embraced the inaugural Superset events in the USA and UK and now we are rewarded with the opportunity to make Superset a permanent fixture on the tennis calendar.”
